| Used Made in America amps - multichan under $1200? The McIntosh amp would be one in a small group that would show the least amount of wear. If you find it has a problem there are many repair shops that specialize in Mc. | |
| Multi Channel Pre Amp Kal listed two I would recommend. As far as enhancing the sound that should be done at the source. Are you using the Oppo with 6 channle analog out's to the pre amp? | |
| Rega P3-24 help required.Right Ch. Distortion I would second Miner42, since you are getting excessive speaker movement, it must be feedback. Try reversing L & Rcables from the table to be sure. | |
| Turntable isolation You could try isolating with AudioQuest sorbethane feet. Keep in mind that they most likely will solve or reduce the "thumping" problem but may also change the tonal quality. Another suggestion is Black Diamond racing cones and an isolation platfo... | |
| Killing echo in bedroom.. Try changing the focal point of the speakers. | |
| Doors Documentary 5-12 on PBS I wish someone would intervene and save many of us from self destruction! But in the music world there have been many great talents that have fallen to self abuse of one form or another. I DVR's the program but haven't watched it yet, ironically I... | |
| McIntosh and focal/jmlab I came very close to buying JM Labs yeasr ago to run with my McIntosh system. The dealer had McIntosh and they sounded very good together. As long as you go solid stae. They played them with tube amps and they sounded a little bloated. But with th... | |
| Best in-wall speakers for rear channel? I helped a freind do his HT install and we used the Linn Sekrets with very good results. But there are many new options out there. I would really look at what is the closest voice match. And if at all possible go with magnepans that can be wall mo... | |
| 3.5mm mini plug cable Mofi is right for the 12v trigger I have used RadioShack for years on my McIntosh equipment and once I ordered one from McIntosh for the particular length I needed and the result was: the system turned on and the system turn off.Probably why you n... | |
| Aesthetix Calypso Signature vs. ARC REF 3 Thanks Guys, a lot of food for thought, I had been leaning towards a REF 3 but the Calypso keeps coming up as a suggestion. I have a LS26 now and if ARC doesn't come out with an LS27 soon I am looking for the REF3. My dealer has me on his list if ... | |
| Heard DV50 and Ayre C-5xe? I have friend with a DV50 and it is a wonderful CD player. I have the C5xe and recently had the MP upgrade done by Ayre. In comparison between the two machines I would say that the Ayre delivers a much more natural toneality. There seems to be an ... | |
| Has anyone tried the Shunyata Diamondback PC? I tried one between a Running Springs Haley and my Pio.Elite plasma and noticed no difference between the OEM cord and the Shunyata. However it may be good on audio, just didn't need one there so I never tried it. | |
| McIntosh MA7000 or MC252? That is a tough call but I would lean towards the seprates.I am using a MC402 with an LS26 and love it. If you can consider the 402 ILO the 252 in favor of the double balnced circuitry that provides a quieter noise floor.But depending on your choi... | |
| McIntosh MX-132 Firmware Upgrade That is basically what the MSD4 was doing. I was using it as a DAC for my CD and each song had a millisecond of silence till if decided what is was decoding. If you can talk with Kevin (pronounced Keeevin)in the engineering dept at Mcintosh he was... | |
| McIntosh MC1.2kw I have heard the 501's not the 1.2's and have had a chance to hear them in a comparison to the Classe' amps. The McIntosh clearly showed that the Classe's were over priced and over rated. Of course that is just my opinion based on 45 years of list... |
